‘Defence may be the wrong word': Shashi Tharoor points at ‘China factor' in Pakistan conflict
Congress leader Shashi Tharoor said on Thursday that 81 percent of Pakistan's defence equipment comes from China, making the country an 'impossible factor' to ignore in the conflict with Islamabad. Tharoor, who is leading a parliamentary delegation to the US to expose Islamabad's nexus with terror after India's Operation Sindoor, said that New Delhi-Beijing relations were making good progress till last month's conflict with Pakistan. 'I'm not going to mince my words, but we are aware that China has immense stakes in Pakistan," PTI quoted Tharoor as telling the representatives of think tanks at the Indian Embassy in Washington DC. Tharoor pointed out that the largest single project under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), and that 81 percent of Pakistani defence equipment is from China. 'Defence may be the wrong word here. Offence in many ways……China is an absolutely impossible factor to ignore in what has been our confrontation with Pakistan,' Tharoor said. Shashi Tharoor told the gathering that India had seen good progress in its relationship with China after tensions since the 2020 Galwan Valley clashes. The Thiruvananthapuram MP added that during Operation Sindoor and the conflict with Pakistan, New Delhi saw a very different China in terms of its support for Islamabad, even on the UN Security Council. 'We have no illusions about what the challenges are in our neighbourhood, but I want to remind you all that India has consistently chosen a path of keeping open channels of communication, even with our adversaries. We have tried as much as possible to focus on development, on growth, on trade. Our trade with China is still at record levels. It's not that we are adopting a posture of hostility, but we would be naive not to be aware of these other currents around,' he said. The UN Security Council, on April 25, issued a press statement on the 'terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir' after the April 22 Pahalgam attack that killed 26 people, mostly tourists. The statement had condemned the attack in "the strongest terms' but did not mention The Resistance Front as Pakistan, which is a non-permanent member of the council, got it removed with China's help. 'The members of the Security Council underlined the need to hold perpetrators, organisers, financiers and sponsors of this reprehensible act of terrorism accountable and bring them to justice,' the press statement had said. Shashi Tharoor was asked about the Chinese military equipment that Pakistan used in the conflict during an earlier interaction at the Council on Foreign Relations. The delegation head said that when India saw what the Pakistanis were attempting to do using Chinese technology, for instance, the 'kill chain' that the Chinese specialise in, where the radar, GPS, planes and missiles are all linked together and they react instantly, 'we simply did things in a different way. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to hit' 11 Pakistani airfields, and "we wouldn't have been able to breach the Chinese-supplied air defences. 'So it's clear that assessments were taking place while the fighting was happening, and we were recalibrating our strategies in order to end as effectively as we were able to end,' Tharoor said.

In a first in UP, 25 automobile dealers lose trade licenses for a month
In a first-of-its-kind action, the Uttar Pradesh Transport Department has suspended the trade licenses of 25 automobile dealers across the state for a month, citing continued failure to comply with vehicle registration procedures. A senior transport department official on Friday confirmed that this is the first time such disciplinary action has been taken against dealers for violating registration norms. The suspended dealers, spread across districts including Lucknow, Barabanki, Sitapur, Kushinagar, Moradabad, and Prayagraj, have been barred from selling vehicles or uploading registration requests on the VAHAN portal during the suspension period that began on June 3. After being repeatedly warned, the dealers were served show-cause notices on April 21 and May 15 this year after a detailed analysis of pending registrations from January to May 2025. Despite being given adequate time, they failed to improve their performance or respond satisfactorily, the Office of the Transport Commissioner said in a statement. The department asserted that these actions are part of an ongoing effort to ensure transparent and citizen-focused service delivery in vehicle registration. "Persistent non-compliance with Rule 39 of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules (CMVR) and relevant provisions of the Uttar Pradesh Motor Vehicles Rules has led to this action, which is aimed at reinforcing accountability and discipline in the vehicle registration process," the statement read. Among those penalised is a prominent dealership in Lucknow, Aarna Megacorp Pvt. Ltd., "highlighting the department's intent to enforce rules uniformly, irrespective of a dealer's location or scale." In Barabanki, the affected dealers are Barabanki Auto Sales & Service, Bright 2 Wheel Sales, and Kalyan Motors. Sitapur-based dealers Narendra Automobiles, Agarwal Auto Sales, and M/s Budhram Auto have also been suspended. From Kushinagar, similar action has been taken against Gupta Automobiles and Gupta Auto Sales. In Sambhal, Badar Motors faced suspension, while in Pratapgarh, M/s Janta Trading Company was penalised. Dealers from Maharajganj include Shubham Automobiles and Chandra Sales, while Shakti Autos from Raebareli and M/s Auto Wheels from Jaunpur were also among the defaulters. In Sant Kabir Nagar, Bharat Auto Sales faced suspension, along with Shyam Motors in Fatehpur and Shiva Auto Sales in Ghazipur. RN Motors in Rampur and Shyam Motors in Auraiya were also on the list. Further, Jai Auto Mobiles in Ambedkar Nagar, Cross Wheel Auto Pvt. Ltd. in Moradabad, and Uplife Solutions Pvt. Ltd. in Basti were suspended. Saraswati Motors in Prayagraj and Vishal Motors in Unnao were among the final names on the list. In a parallel move, the department has also issued show cause notices to 50 other dealers across the state with high registration pendency. These dealers have been given a 14-day deadline to clear pending files or face similar suspension.

US investment firm Artisan Partners to liquidate China portfolio by end-June
Firm says liquidation comes amid uncertain geopolitical environment Spokesperson says Hong Kong office will remain operational US has heightened scrutiny of American capital flowing into China By Kane Wu and Summer Zhen HONG KONG, - U.S.-based investment firm Artisan Partners is liquidating a China-focused investment portfolio by the end of June, a company spokesperson said on Saturday. "This decision comes amid an increasingly uncertain geopolitical environment and a persistently challenging economic and market backdrop, which have put significant pressure on flows across dedicated China strategies," the Artisan spokesperson said. The spokesperson said its Hong Kong office will remain operational, housing investment and trading professionals. Two sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Friday that the firm was disbanding the Hong Kong-based team responsible for its Greater China strategy. One said the decision was partly due to concerns about escalating Sino-U.S. trade and geopolitical tensions that have made investments in the world's second-largest economy riskier. The sources declined to be named as the information was not public. Reuters could not immediately ascertain how many people would be affected by the decision. The firm's China post-venture strategy, a fund that focuses on Chinese small- and mid-cap public and private companies, had $113 million of assets under management at the end of April, according to the firm's monthly update. In the same update, Artisan said the China-focused portfolio was in the process of winding down, without giving details. The firm's retreat from China-focused investments comes amid the U.S. government's tightened scrutiny of American investments in China and an ongoing trade war that has clouded the business outlook of many export-heavy companies from China. The U.S. government restricts U.S. investments in certain sensitive technology sectors in China, such as semiconductors, artificial intelligence and quantum computing. U.S. investors are also restricted from investing in companies that are on the U.S. sanctioned entity list that comprise a growing number of those from China. U.S. onshore investors were not able to buy shares of Chinese battery giant CATL in its $4.6 billion Hong Kong listing last month due to the structure of the deal, CATL's filings showed. CATL was placed on a U.S. Defense Department list in January of Chinese companies it says work with China's military. By March 2025, Artisan's China post-venture strategy posted a net loss of 10.4% since its inception in March 2021. "The largest risks for investing in China will continue to be geopolitics and domestic policy overshoots," Tiffany Hsiao, the strategy's portfolio manager, said in a client letter on the firm's website in April. Outside the U.S., Artisan also has offices in London, Dublin, Singapore and Sydney, according to its website. The move follows the exit or downsizing of several North American asset managers and international law firms from Hong Kong over the past few years. Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan, Canada's third-largest pension fund, announced the closure of its Hong Kong office in March.
